Huntington resident Sarah VanDine is raising funds on Go Fund Me in memory of her mother, Marilyn Young VanDine.Â
"Nearly 10 years ago my mother discovered she had a rare form of cancer-cholangiocarcinoma, or cancer of the bile duct. Â It's a very aggressive cancer that is often missed, and unfortunately she passed away 6 months after her diagnosis.
"I've participated in different events to help throughout the years, but I could think of no better way to both honor her and raise awareness than participate in 10 races this year. Â All of my travel fees are coming out of pocket, with the help of friends offering to host me in different cities. Â I figure this is a much better use of my loan money than going on a vacation somewhere in 2014."
